I need help (frogs)

izzy123 Feb 27, 2008 12:27 PM

I bought 2 frogs at a pet store about 4 days ago and the lady there told me they where fine with my fish and ate the same thing. well 3 days later they are swimming around alot more and to me I think they are hungery so I dont want to over feed my fish trying to feed them so I get on the net and I know that they are some kind of african frog and I find one that looks just like it called that african dwarf frog and it eats blood worms so I call the pet store and ask them they say no its a leaf frog and it eats fish food flakes well today I'm back on the net and I cant find a leaf frog that looks like my frogs so are these ppl wrong or what my frogs are little brown with black spots if anyone can help me figure this out before my froggies croke this would be great

Hi. I don't know much about frogs, but you are right on the pet store being wrong... as usual. So I searched for the typical frogs they sell in pet stores which is the dwarf african frog, and I found a possibly helpful website for you. Let me know if this helps, until then... I'll promote your post. Maybe someone with experience can help you out with the food items.

thats the same web site I found when I started looking the thing I'm worried about it feeding them and what to feed them with them being in a fish thank with other fish I did find some pellet stuff besides blood worms at the store the other day when I was on my search for frogs turtles and stuff but I'm just not sure about what to feed them and how much with out hurting my fish too. I wish ppl at pet stores would know more about what they are selling and stuff because I know some ppl just think oh well its just a fish or frog in this case but they deserve to be happy to.
